What would use this?

Just curious what kind of snake would use this. Arborial for certain. Vietnamese Blue Beauty?

Having recalled Mink was surfing CL for snakes, I came upon this offer.
It is a 3.5 x 3.5 base cage that is 6ft tall. It looks pretty well made as far as I can tell from the picture. It is listed as a snake cage, but I imagine there are a number of animals that would appreciate the space.

Would just so happen that I have a 4ftx4ft space that could be emptied...

screened in reptile cage

Carpet pythons probably. My IJ looooves climbing! Just got a male and he's fond of hights and super active.

You could also do chameleons, amazon tree boas (i love the orange and yellow ones), tywaniese beauty as you mentioned.
That is a beautiful enclosure btw =) I would love to have something like that for my future IJ collection. =)

Don't forget a water dragon...

You'd definitely want to stick with arboreal species (obviously), although with a cage as big as that it doesn't really narrow down your options to a few species. Mind listing any other traits out of the animal you'd like? Temperament? Ease of care? Activity level?

Well because its screened i'd say chameleons, not a water dragon though, they need at least a 6 foot cage with a substantial water area. Look into meller's chameleons they look incredible and aren't too hard to care for

Oh this is only speculation. Picking the brains of those with more experience. Fantasy.
I am still holding out for the woma python I expect to see months from now and the cage for it. Let me stick to the smaller simpler cage for the time being. I was only thinking it be nice to share.

Took the words out of my mouth exactly. Cham for sure I was going to suggest Mellers as well. If you are set on a snake instead I dont know that I would trust the screen with the strength of an adult carpet. Certainly an ATB or something along those smaller lines would be fine.
